It’s knives out, but in a good way, when The Big Holiday Food Fight makes its debut on OWN Tuesday, Nov. 16, at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Hosted by Kym Whitley, this exciting holiday-themed cooking competition series celebrates the holidays with traditions, family recipes and a side order of fierce competition. In each episode, a new King or Queen of the holiday table are crowned, putting a $5,000 jingle in their pocket for Christmas shopping. Three home cooks will bust out their most beloved holiday family recipes in a multi-stage cook-off that will leave only one home chef standing. At the end of each round, judges Gina Neely, Darnell Ferguson and James Wright Chanel will decide who stays for the next round and who gets booted out in the cold. In the premiere episode, “Battle of Spices,” a Jamaican cook seeks the advantage over his competitors’ southern Creole flavors. The cooks fight to win the early advantage with a sous chef.
